More than 50 extraordinary international and national musicians from countries like UK, Germany, Italy, France and Scandinavia will perform on over 7 stages showing their skills to the public. The Hanoi New Music Festival presents five new commissioned compositions by local musicians/ artists/ choreographers among others SonX, Vu Nhat Tan, Nguyen Manh Hung, Nguyen Duc Minh, Pham Thi Hue, Nguyen Anh Duc; as well as outstanding international and national productions including Go To Hell by The Six Tones, What Makes The Spider Spin Her Web by Kim Ngoc, Phonotope by Rolf Wallin, Thanh Giong by Ton That Tiet.

On top of the 8-day programme, festival goers have the rare chance to see excellent interactive music productions, improvisations, music installations and music theatre in the city of Hanoi. In addition to the presentation of electro-acoustic music, a range of contemporary chamber music is an integral component of the festival. 
The festival’s vast experimental music shows are supplemented by an extensive cultural programme of performances and screenings. Under the title ‘The Blind Spot’ the festival aims not only to change the ‘invisibility’ of contemporary music in the local scene, filling the gaps in knowledge, but also to generate synergetic effects to strengthen musical infrastructures between Vietnam and the worldwide contemporary music scene. 
The Hanoi New Music Festival 2013 will take place in different venues in Hanoi including DomDom the Hub for Experimental Music & Art which is one of the most exciting cultural venues in the city at the moment. Enjoy the premiere of the first Hanoi New Music Festival!
